Trump sparks fresh dementia concerns after he drinks small glass of water with two hands like a child – just days after he slurred his words during Jerusalem speech

Donald Trump has sparked dementia concerns after he was captured drinking water with two hands like a small child while unveiling his new national security strategy in front of military service members in Washington, D.C.

This comes days after he slurred his words during Jerusalem speech and prompted Twitter users to wonder if he has a health problem. While some suggested he was cradling the glass or because of his “tiny hands”, others raised concerns that the movement could be evidence of a serious degenerative disorder, such as dementia, which can cause shaky hands.

Charlene Eliz. Jones wrote that Trump “holds that water glass like my 3 year old grandson holds his cup! I really think Trump has dementia and is reverting 2 childhood action.”

Joseph Fedorko added: “THE WAY HE IS GRABBING THAT GLASS SHOWS TRUMP HAS DEMENTIA. HIS MOTOR SKILLS ARE DEGENERATING.” It’s not the first time Trump has been seen drinking strangely. In November, he picked up a bottle of Fiji water in both hands and sipped it awkwardly during a press conference at the White House. And earlier this month, speculation went wild after Trump began slurring through part of his speech announcing changes to America’s Israel policy.

He finished his remarks by saying: “God bless the United Shhtates. Thank you very much-sh.”

Commenting on Trump’s behavior, TV host Joe Scarborough said, “people close to him during the campaign told me [he] had early stages of dementia”.

A White House spokesman insisted the president merely had a case of “dry mouth,” telling the Los Angeles Times that “his throat was dry. There’s nothing to it.”
